Quick Write: Left-Handers Day

Today is "International Left-Handers Day" and we are going to have a bit of fun. Have your little darlings pick any summer topic to write about. The fun part is to have him/her write it with the hand they don't write with. Right-handed? Use the left! Left-handed? Use the right! Good luck with this one!

Writing Topic
Left-Handers Day

Writing Tools
For very young writers:

          Provide a pencil and lined paper

For growing and older writers:

          Provide a pen and wide- or college-ruled notebook or a laptop/PC

Writing instructions
Have your little (and big) darlings spend time coming up with a summer topic. It can be anything seasonal!

Examples:
The beach
Heat
Gardens
Bugs
Birds
Water skiing
Whatever!

After he/she comes up with a topic, let the writing begin (with the opposite hand, of course)! A paragraph about said topic should suffice.

Set your little darlings free and allow them to write from the heart!
